# Adventurous Open-World Games Wild is a New Open World PS4 Game from the Creator of Rayman By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-08-13 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-world-game References: [gamespot](http://www.gamespot.com/articles/rayman-beyond-good-evil-creator-reveals-a-ps4-excl/1100-6421676/) & [joystiq](http://www.joystiq.com/2014/08/12/rayman-creator-goes-wild-announces-exclusive-open-world-ps4-adv/) When you're playing a video game, there's nothing more frustrating than wanting to roam free and bumping into that invisible wall that permits you from exploring any further—however, 'Wild' is a new open-world game that was announced at Gamescom 2014 that will let players adventure to their heart's content. The game is a project by Michel Ancel, who is also responsible for popular titles like Rayman and Beyond Good & Evil. Just like a real world, the game promises to have seasons and gamers can play as a human avatar, as well as other wild creatures like wolves, boars or eagles. At the PlayStation press conference, Ancel describes that "Our concept is based on experiencing new situations every time you play." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Open-world Gaming:** Video game developers can focus on creating more open-world games that allow for greater player exploration and experiences. - **Seasonal Gaming:** Game developers can incorporate seasonal changes into their games to add greater immersion and realism. - **Playable Creatures:** Game developers can create more games where players can control non-human characters, providing more variety and unique gameplay experiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Video Games:** Companies in the video game industry can invest in developing more open-world games with unique features and gameplay mechanics. - **Virtual Reality:** With advancements in virtual reality technology, companies in the industry can create more immersive open-world games that allow players to truly feel like they are in the game world. - **Mobile Gaming:** Developers of mobile games can create open-world games that are accessible and enjoyable on-the-go, providing a new market for this genre of games. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Open-World Survival Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runescape-dragonwilds.md) - [Open-World Horror Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sons-of-the-forest.md) - [Nature-Filled Open-World Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-blackbird.md) - [Open-World Mongolian Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/windstorm-the-legend-of-khiimori.md) - [Open-World Multiplayer Video Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palworld.md) - [Immersive Action-Adventure Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindseye-game.md) - [Punishing Open World Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phantom-blade-zero.md) - [Creature-Catching Exploration Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aniimo.md) - [Visually Intriguing Open-World Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arto-video-game.md)
